Template:Hero Infobox Short description // Upgrade in <building>

General Assessment

Strengths

  • Good HP for a trebuchet unit.

Weaknesses

Tactics

Attack

  • For a proper attack, deadly combination with an upgraded level 3 Henry as his rapid barrage can take out three defense structure within 30 seconds.
  • Can be used to save 10 slots of the army by using him in combination with Saladin.
  • Nikephoros is basically a buffed up Trebuchet and is very useful with or without using his ability. He is best used during an attack to quickly take out a defensive structure using Rapid Barrage.
  • Alternatively he can be used to attack another part of the base away from your main focus of attack as he is capable of holding his own with minimal supporting units. He can then be used to loot resources on the other side of the base.

Defense

  • Heros cannot be used in defense.
